Can Massive Cargo Ships Use Wind to Go Green?
The article explores the potential of wind propulsion technologies to reduce the carbon footprint of cargo ships. Gavin Allwright, a sustainable shipping advocate, and various companies like Anemoi Marine Technologies and BAR Technologies are leading efforts to integrate modern sails into cargo vessels. Despite initial resistance, the shipping industry is increasingly recognizing the economic and environmental benefits of wind propulsion. Key players like A.P. Moller-Maersk and Cargill are investing in these technologies. The International Maritime Organization faces criticism for slow progress on decarbonization, while the European Union and other entities push for stricter regulations. The future of shipping may see a mix of wind propulsion and zero-carbon fuels, significantly reducing emissions and operational costs.

A decade of ISPS Code
Lars H. Bergqvist discusses the International Ship and Port Security code (ISPS), which was implemented in response to the 9/11 attacks to enhance maritime security. He provides a background on maritime legislation, noting that most are reactions to disasters, such as the Titanic or the Torrey Canyon oil spill. The ISPS Code, however, was unique as it was a response to a terrestrial terrorist attack. Bergqvist explains the urgency and rapid adoption of the ISPS Code, its impact on ships and ports, and the extensive training that was required. He also covers the history of maritime terrorism, detailing incidents before and after the ISPS Code's implementation. While acknowledging the Code's success in preventing terrorism, he notes that piracy remains a separate issue. The article concludes with the future challenges of the ISPS Code, suggesting it could be improved to address piracy and stowaways more effectively.

Maritime industry faces extra complexity in achieving green fuel transition, says Fincantieri
The maritime industry is undergoing significant changes as it faces increased scrutiny over decarbonisation efforts. Fincantieri's CEO, Pierroberto Folgiero, emphasizes the need for supportive policies rather than punitive measures to achieve emissions reduction targets. The EU's FuelEU Maritime initiative and the International Maritime Organization's revised greenhouse gas strategy are key regulatory drivers. Fincantieri is exploring various green fuel alternatives, including hydrogen and nuclear, but faces challenges related to fuel availability, cost, and infrastructure. Discussions on a potential shipping emissions tax are ongoing, with Folgiero advocating for reasonable levies. Collaboration within the maritime ecosystem and with stakeholders is crucial for a successful transition to green fuels.

Former Captain to Sea-Watch: 'I am furious about what has happened'
German Sea-Watch captain Carola Rackete has been released from house arrest by an investigating judge in Agrigento, Sicily. Despite this, Italy's Interior Minister Matteo Salvini insists on expelling her for endangering national security. Rackete had entered an Italian port without permission, carrying 40 migrants aboard the Sea-Watch 3 vessel. Stefan Schmidt, former captain and the one who named the ship, relates to Rackete's situation, recalling his own experience in 2004 with the Cap Anamur, which carried 37 Sudanese refugees. Schmidt criticizes the Italian authorities' response and expresses hope that cities declaring themselves open ports will influence politics. Solidarity and demonstrations support Rackete, with over a million euros raised for Sea-Watch. Schmidt calls for more than solidarity from the German state and hopes the attention on Sea-Watch will impact policy. He differentiates between smugglers and rescue operations, emphasizing the legality of the latter. Schmidt, now an honorary refugee commissioner in Schleswig-Holstein, stands behind Rackete's actions and invites Sea-Watch to a celebration upon their return to Germany.

Deadly coral disease sweeping Caribbean linked to water from ships
A fast-moving coral disease, stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD), is devastating Caribbean coral reefs and may be linked to ballast water from ships. First identified in Florida in 2014, SCTLD has spread to 18 countries, with significant impacts in the Bahamas. Research suggests a correlation between the disease and proximity to major shipping ports. The Bahamian government has formed a taskforce to address the issue, with current treatments involving the antibiotic amoxicillin. Experts emphasize the need to address human-made causes to allow natural recovery.

We can only have a healthy planet with a healthy ocean, how can we achieve it?
The United Nations Ocean Conference focused on the ocean's health, emphasizing the need for urgent action against threats such as climate change, plastic pollution, and overexploitation. The conference, held in Lisbon, Portugal, was not about negotiations but about amplifying commitments. António Guterres, UN Secretary-General, stressed that a healthy planet requires a healthy ocean. The International Maritime Organization was urged to commit to zero net emissions by 2050. A historic consensus was reached to end plastic pollution, aiming for a legally binding international agreement by 2024. Overfishing remains a pressing issue, with recent consensus to stop subsidies for illegal fishing. The conference also discussed the controversial topic of deep-sea mining. The 30x30 initiative seeks to protect 30% of the ocean by 2030. Youth involvement in decision-making was suggested as a way to bring innovative solutions to ocean-related problems.

Antigua and Barbuda’s Legal Triumph Could Shape COP29 in Azerbaijan
Antigua and Barbuda achieved a significant legal victory with the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea recognizing greenhouse gas emissions as a pollutant, setting a precedent for holding major polluters accountable. This ruling, driven by Antigua and Barbuda and Tuvalu, is expected to influence the upcoming COP29 conference in Azerbaijan. Prime Minister Gaston Browne emphasized the legal obligations of polluters to protect the environment. The decision builds on the momentum from the Loss and Damage Fund established at COP28, with the Alliance of Small Island States playing a crucial role. The ruling is seen as a step towards more robust international climate action, with hopes for increased voluntary commitments from major polluters.

Europe Expands Virtual Borders To Thwart Migrants
Europe is increasingly relying on remote-sensing technology and aerial patrols to create virtual borders aimed at preventing migrants from reaching its shores. This shift away from proactive naval operations is driven by legal and regulatory challenges, as well as a desire to avoid obligations related to rescuing and processing asylum seekers. The European Border and Coast Guard Agency, Frontex, has significantly increased its budget and resources, focusing on advanced surveillance technologies. However, this approach has raised ethical and legal concerns, with civil-society groups and legal scholars questioning the impact on migrants' rights and safety. The article highlights the complex interplay between technology, policy, and human rights in the context of European border control.

Crewless container ships appear on the horizon
The Yara Birkeland, an 80m-long ship in Norway, is set to become fully autonomous by 2025, reducing its crew from five to none. The ship, owned by Yara and equipped with advanced sensors and AI, will be remotely monitored from a center 80km away. Kongsberg, the project's technology provider, is also developing other autonomous vessels. The shift towards crewless ships promises cost savings and increased safety, though regulatory and technical challenges remain. Experts believe that while large unmanned ships may not cross oceans soon, autonomous technology is advancing rapidly, with significant implications for the maritime industry.

Freight Costs Rise as Houthi Attacks Disrupt Global Shipping
Freight costs from Asia to northern Europe have surged due to Houthi rebel attacks on commercial vessels in the Red Sea, forcing shipping companies to reroute around Africa. The Iranian-backed Houthis have targeted vessels, including those linked to Israel, leading to significant disruptions in trade. The U.S. has launched Operation Prosperity Guardian to counter these attacks, but confidence in its effectiveness is low. The U.N. Security Council has expressed concerns over global food security risks, while the U.S. accuses Iran of supporting the Houthis, a claim Tehran denies. The threat level to commercial shipping is unprecedented, surpassing previous Somali piracy incidents.

The waters off southern Sri Lanka, a crucial feeding and nursing area for blue whales, are also a significant shipping lane, leading to frequent whale-ship collisions. The Mediterranean Shipping Company has announced a voluntary rerouting of its vessels to reduce these collisions, a move supported by marine biologists and conservationists. However, the Sri Lankan government, facing an economic crisis, has yet to make this change permanent due to potential economic impacts. Experts suggest alternative measures like marking whale-prone areas on maritime charts and using acoustic deterrents to prevent ship strikes.

Nurdle pollution: old problem, same legislative challenges
Operation Clean Sweep, a voluntary program aimed at preventing plastic pellet leakage, faces criticism for its lack of mandatory measures and transparency. Despite being operational in Europe since 2015, it lacks external checks and penalties for non-compliance. Environmental charity Fidra and other campaigners call for stricter regulations, while PlasticsEurope has introduced an upgraded certification scheme with third-party audits. However, challenges remain in enforcing accountability for nurdle pollution, with global treaties being non-binding and national laws not rigorously enforced. A recent proposal to the International Maritime Organization to reclassify nurdles as hazardous was met with industry resistance. The European Commission is discussing a draft law to address plastic pellet pollution, aiming to cut microplastic pollution by 30 percent by 2030, but it has received mixed reactions from environmental groups.

Shipping Looks to Hydrogen as It Seeks to Ditch Bunker Fuel
The shipping industry is exploring hydrogen and hydrogen-based fuels as alternatives to bunker fuel to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Companies like CMB and Mediterranean Shipping Company are piloting hydrogen projects, while others are skeptical about its feasibility for large cargo ships. Ammonia, a hydrogen-based fuel, is gaining traction due to its higher energy density and existing transport infrastructure. However, large-scale adoption faces challenges, including the need for significant renewable energy and regulatory frameworks. The International Maritime Organization and the EU are considering carbon levies to accelerate the transition, but reaching a global consensus remains difficult. Major shipping companies are also investing in low-carbon synthetic fuels and biofuels as interim solutions.
